Hi doze,
I just had an author/client on the phone who told me he had killed one of his maxigalleries. The main error was a php parse error that said getimagesize(/some/path/verylongfilenameoverfiftycharsandevenmorefromth) had failed. The complete path with the filename is /some/path/verylongfilenameoverfiftycharsandevenmorefromtheclient.jpg . The last chars were obviously cut.
edit: screenshot of the original error message:
http://fastview.h-quadrat.it/?uid=169
Then I looked in the DB and found the ’filename’ field is only 50 chars long. I extended this to 255 chars and deleted the corrupt entries, then uploaded the images again and it all worked.
Maybe you can change this in the db-table creation. opengeek in addition suggested on the irc chat (cite): "[16:26] opengeek: change it to tinytext and it’ll support up to 512 byte filenames without hurting performance (increases access time slightly, but decreases storage space, so the larger the table, the better performance tinytext will provide over varchar(255))".
Kind regards,
Henning
